Howard Eagle To Run For City School Board

Howard Eagle says he is running for a seat on the Rochester City School Board this year. Eagle is trying to capture one of the four open seats.

He previously was a high school teacher for 23 years, retiring in 2010, and is now an adjunct professor at SUNY Brockport.

Eagle, who has run for a seat on the board in some previous races, says that,

“The long-standing academic and fiscal crisis within the Rochester City School District has continuously grown worse (year after year). "  “I believe Rochester parents, and citizens in general, are seeking new, fresh ideas, and bold, committed, knowledgeable leadership that will finally, effectively address the old, and deepening crisis. I stand ready, willing, and able to help provide such leadership.”
